Willem Lightheart is the son of two Romini circus acrobats. When he was a young adolescent his father was teaching him to walk the tight rope and he fell to the ground and cut his cheek on a small stone giving him a small scar under his left eye. This event led to Willem’s fear of heights. Even though Willem never walked the tight rope again, he still enjoyed performing by singing and playing the lute. He had a natural ability, even as a young boy, to encourage and strengthen those who listened to his songs.

One of the circus performers was a friendly giant named Bigarow who was the circus’ sword swallower. Since he was such a large individual, he performed his act with a greatsword, which still looked like a twig in his hands. He befriended young Willem and even taught him to wield the greatsword, although Willem never learned to be a sword swallower because the greatsword was much too large for him to attempt that act.

Shortly after Willem became an adult one day he was sent to the near by town to purchase supplies for the circus. While he was gone a band of bandits attacked the circus to steal the receipts from that day’s performance. Willem’s parents were killed by the bandits during the robbery. Willem returned to find his murdered parents and since he knew he could never know who actually performed the act which led to his parent’s death so he vowed to dedicate his life to always fight and help protect those who could not do so for themselves.

As he sharpened his fighting skills he realized that his natural ability to encourage himself and others with his songs was one of his greatest strengths and since he enjoyed performing so much he continues to improve his abilities as a performer as well as venture across Avlis. His love of lore and song causes him to write many songs about those he travels with and the sights they see together.
